Edinburgh for learning, Edinburgh for fun, Edinburgh for Everyone.

Edinburgh is a beautiful city with a fascinating past, and this book is a way
of telling the world about it. If you want to know more about this wonderful
place and its history, then this is the book for you.

Starting from the very beginning — when volcanoes erupted to make the Castle
Rock — the book moves on to tell the story of the Old Town, and ends by telling you how it
became the Edinburgh of today, loved by locals and tourists alike. Along the way you'll also find short
stories about the interesting characters who lived there, the grand architecture
and the crazy events that happened in Edinburgh. All of this is written in a fun
way, but in plain English so everyone can enjoy it.
